The kitchen island and some of the crockery dirty. Crumbs were on the shelves and looks like that area was overlooked by the cleaning team. Some of the crockery was chipped and I would found pasta bowls useful. The rest of the property was good, but just needs a little TLC for the prices being charged. ##### Kevin L.
